To answer my own question, I downloaded the plug-in from

http://cue.yellowmagic.info/softwares/separate.html

and it seems to function with 2.6 ok

No one is actively working on it and it is not considered a high
priority feature. Working in the CMYK color model is not important for
the product vision of GIMP. It might perhaps be implemented one day, but
I don't see that happening anytime soon.

What might happen is better support for CMYK separation. But that only
gives you CMYK export, it doesn't enable you to work in the CMYK model.

>   Does the move to GEGL smooth the path to CMYK in some way? 

Yes, it definitely makes it easier. But it doesn't come all by itself.

I note in the explanation that there is no mention of using CMYK color 
model, beyond what is already available in the preview feature.  Is 
manipulation in the CMYK model in the works for some time in the 
future?  Does the move to GEGL smooth the path to CMYK in some way?

"Very new" is relative, they are from June.  And without GIMP, would any 
distribution ever add those libs?

No problem in Debian Sid: the source distribution compiles without any

I don't think F9 is the only distro suffering...

The bottomline appears to be that the Gimp really depends on these
very new versions of babl and gegl.

babl.org and gegl.org both provide downloads - the announcement probably 
should have
noted the dependency; Fedora 9 hasn't yet caught up with all the changes 
to the gimp
dependencies.

It complains about babl (requires 0.0.22, version provided by Fedora
is 0.0.20) and gegl (requires 0.0.18, provided is 0.0.16).

When I tried (forced) to build with the provided versions I ran into
compilation errors so I decided to consult the list first before
trying to proceed.

Many thanks! 

Unfortunately, even though I'm running a recent version of Linux,
Fedora 9, I cannot build this version. Some of the requirements are
out of reach for this latest stable version of Fedora.

Has anyone been able to build a gimp 2.6 rpm for Fedora 8 or 9?

[Gimp-user] ANNOUNCE: GIMP 2.6.0

2008-10-01 Thread Sven Neumann
Finally we have done it and released version 2.6.0 of the GNU Image
Manipulation Program. The changes from version 2.4 are best described in
the release notes on

  http://gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.6.html

If you want to compile GIMP 2.6 yourself, you can grab the tarball from
ftp.gimp.org or one of its mirrors:

  ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.6/

Please note that there was a glitch in the 2.6.0 tarball on the FTP
server that was corrected after a few hours. If in doubt, you can use
the following information to check that you have the fixed tarball:

  filename: gimp-2.6.0.tar.bz2
  size: 15897821 bytes
  MD5 sum:  e5ac955fee8b376d431e4693027d7640

Binary packages for the various supported platforms are expected to
become available over the next couple of days. The new gimp.org website
will help you to locate the packages for your system:

  http://gimp.org/downloads/

Thanks a lot to everyone who helped to improve GIMP.
